Excellent image quality with a good level of sharpness and detail overall, as well as excellent stereo sound quality when shooting Full HD movies. The array of exposure modes on offer is excellent, as is the focal length range offered by the 14x optical zoom lens
Battery life is pretty poor and the constant battle with the pop-up flash can get a little tiresome. Results from the GPS system are patchy, with the camera struggling to find a lock when not out in an open space
This stout compact may not be the prettiest thing to look at, but it won't let you down when it comes to image quality...
The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS is an extremely versatile, capable and feature-packed compact superzoom. If you don't need the GPS feature, though, you'll be able to find a similar camera for less money....
Excellent overall image quality (sharpness, sensitivity), Sharp 1080p video with decent functions (zoom etc.), Audio quality (stereo effect in particular), Highend build and advanced settings (PSAM, manual focusing), Clear, simple interface in Auto modes
Could be more responsive, Poor battery life, Annoying popup flash
The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS is a very good camera indeed. It takes high-quality photos, films great video, and the interface and controls are nicely designed. It's just a shame about the battery life, which lasts well under 300 photos (even without th...
Canon consistently makes some of the best-performing point-and-shoot cameras in our tests, and the PowerShot SX230 HS is no exception. Its image quality puts it among the top tier of 2011's pocket-megazoom class, and the camera can be as easy to use or...
Abstract: Cameras with built-in GPS receivers once seemed frivolous and gimmicky to me. Now that I’m facing a long overseas trip, I’m having second thoughts about the value of mapping all my shots, so the timing of this review is just right.Canon’s PowerShot SX2...
The masses have always wanted a powerful camera which would enable them to click distant things and yet get clear images. For this, they required a super-zoom device, but the problem with most of the super zoom models is their bulk. They never fit into po...
The Canon PowerShot SX230HS is priced slightly higher than most compact cameras found in the market. However, it provides the user with a wide array of features that really made this camera stand out amongst other compacts. We were hard pressed to find...
Starting off with the SX230 HS' GPS feature, we say that it is a double-edged sword. While it can be useful to those who are keen on documenting their travels, it also compromises the camera's battery life, considering that the GPS sensor uses energy to r...
Abstract: 隨身 DC 消費型相機除了體積輕巧、價位較低外，還有什麼優勢呢？答案是利用感光元件較小的特性，可設計出隨身攜帶的高倍光學變焦機種，輕薄的隨身型機種能見到15倍以上光學變焦，類單眼機型則上看30倍光學變焦，如果搭配28mm以下的超廣角，可說是相當方便的旅遊機。上一回我們推薦了隨身大光圈機種，這次則是介紹高倍變焦機種，近年來高倍變焦機種逐漸朝向兩個種類發展，其中以隨身型的高倍變焦機發展較為顯眼，這類型機種多半維持隨身機的苗條體型，卻搭載15倍以上光學變焦性能，拍攝望遠場景可說相當輕鬆。另一個類型則是延續類單眼...
